Customer Reviews

Love scouts! So many wonderful flavors to choose from. We ordered some for work today for pick up at the downtown location. They had them ready instantly. It was simple and quick. Everyone in the office raved over them! Even the ones who wont eat Donuts because they are on a diet. ?? Definitely recommend

North Main is getting its game back, y?all! New retail and dining options, but holy GEEZ a Scout?s walk-up?!?!? YES PLEASE!!!! These are the only donuts in Greenville County (possibly all of SC but I am not in the mood for internet fighting) that matter. And you can WALK there!! Service is friendly and fun, and the sweets?sublime. Taking myself for a coffee date as soon as they open this morning.

Scouts doughnuts are fantastic! We tried the strawberry, lemon blueberry and vanilla glaze. They were all equally delicious. This was our first time trying Scouts and Tanner was super helpful explaining their flavors and giving us recommendations about Greenville.

We visited Scout?s Doughnuts Walkup later in the afternoon and found that most of their selection had already sold out?a testament to their popularity! Fortunately, we were able to try their chocolate sprinkle doughnuts, and they did not disappoint. The texture was unique, almost reminiscent of a puff pastry. The exterior had a slight crispness, while the inside was airy and light, similar to an ?clair but with a softer dough. The flavor was rich without being overly sweet, making for a satisfying treat th

I would try them all if I lived here. The lemon blueberry was great, I love a good cronut!

Scout?s donuts was one of the best bites I had during my stay in Greenville! I got the chai donut and the lemon blueberry donut as recommended by the staff present and they were AMAZING!! Both donuts were flavored deeply with plenty of flaky layers that provide a nice crunch with each bite! So so good and I would recommend scout?s go anybody walking by!

Convenient spot for the best sweet treat! Very kind people and the best strawberry doughnut I?ve ever had!

Had an amazing experience here with Tanner. Great service and even better doughnuts

We discovered Scouts just after Helene and were blown away but in a great way this time! This family owned business is a needed treasure on Main Street in Greenville. After we first had Scouts doughnuts we went back the following Saturday to eat them while we walked around the market. What an amazing way to experience the market! You can taste the love and thought in every bite. As they were just opening they gave us some extras to share with friends and neighbors, which we did! Everyone flipped for them. I

You can?t go to Main Street without walking up to the Scouts Doughnuts window. What an amazing treat and fabulous service. So glad we stopped.
